Ideas to get a factory style hose on this car

[Finoke]

Looking for ideas on how to get a factory style upper rad  hose on my Charger. Originally a 318 car but now a 440 with a factory style radiator with no numbers on it.

Tried buying some hoses from Napa. No luck.

as far as I know  the upper radiator hose was on the right side & the lower radiator on left for all 68-70 26 inch B-body radiators , that's prolly why you cant locate one  

which side  is the  lower  ?

could search through pictures of stock 26 inch  70 & later  C & B-Bodies  & see what might fit ?

 70 b body  22inch radiator had upper left , but might be too short ..

 small block 26  E/B body  have upper on left  & lower on right

Try correct one upside down?

I ended up talking to a few parts counter guys at the local O'reilly's /Autozone/ Advance Auto with an old one and found a few that I matched up after going through the ones they stocked.  I had to trim it here and there but it ended up working great.  Below is a pic of how it looks.

I also have a driver side upper radiator.

Try out Gates 20874

Good info. My lower is passenger side. Upper is drivers side. I guess I can change radiators at some point but this one cools fine and doesn't leak.

Looks great!

Interesting, but visualizing I don't think it will work.

Definitely worth a try. My set up looks like yours. Thanks, I will let you know how I make out.

You would also need to change the water pump housing as well if you do get the correct radiator.  Lower should be on drivers side

Mine came with both inlet and outlet on the driver's side.
Was a factory 318 A/C car with 26" radiator.
I've since replaced it with an aluminium radiator with the upper on the passenger side for a diagonal flow.
